FIVE ROCKS

FIVE ROCKS Five Rocks, Byfield National Park, Capricorn Coast. A beautiful Fishing, Camping and 4x4 destination.

Five Rocks beach is a straight, 5.3 km long, east facing beach that lies between The Three Rivers headland and Five Rocks Point. Three Rivers is named after three small creeks that converge on the northern corner of the beach, while Five Rocks is due to the presence of five distinctive sea stacks that sit atop the narrow, 600 m long point. The entire beach is backed by stable, vegetated parabolic

dunes that extend up to 8 km inland and reach heights of over 200 m. The beach is accessible via 4WD tracks at each end, as well as along the low gradient beach at low tide. The beach itself has a 50 m wide, moderate gradient high tide beach, fronted by a 150 m wide low tide bar. Wave average 0.6 m and occasional higher waves cut rips every 200 m. A trough and outer bar lie just seaward, with more widely spaced rips cutting the outer bar. Swimming
This is a moderately safe beach when waves are less than 0.5m; above that the rips are active at mid to low tide. Surfing
Five Rocks is the northernmost of the more accessible beaches (from Yeppoon) and is occasionally visited by local surfers looking for a beach break, when the Trades are blowing or during occasional swell conditions. Fishing
The southern Five Rocks Point has extensive rock platforms and is a popular spot to fish. General
A relatively accessible beach, just 10km by sandy 4WD track from the Byfields Road. It is also partly located in the national park, while a sign on the beach marks the beginning of the Shoalwater Bay Military Reserve and this area is often off limits.

Back in 1910, this is the Railway Hotel, Yeppoon and the main drag looking east. Not a horse in sight, though there is evidence on the road that some had passed by. A few of the old fishermen would have got into trouble there. (Pic recently posted on Vintage Qld FB site.)
